…because the indoors can wait! I scoured the internet for the best Halloween decorations to make your neighbors jealous. Get these done in the next week or so, and we will move on to the indoors. I reserve the right to amend this list as I find more, feel free to leave your ideas in the comments!
Ghostly forms
Silhouttes
One of my all time favorites. I made the witch for my Mom a few years ago and all the neighbors in her ‘hood want one.
Maybe those neighbors can use the zombie version

Let me out!
These zombies don’t want in, they want out!
Tombstones
Making your own tombstones are more cost effective and unique from the ones you buy at Walgreens. Make a graveyard with some tombstones and lights. But when it comes to a graveyard, remember to keep it simple. If you start cluttering up your lawn with bones, body parts, and cobwebs it can look junky.

Bubble bubble toil and trouble
Next level those plastic cauldrons with some expandable spray foam toy eyeballsand plastic rats/insects/worms. Don’t forget the eye of newt and bat wings.
Tattered draperies
One of my yearly favorites, these drapes make any house look haunted
